BA/BS in Computer and Information Sciences, General

Bowie State's Bachelor of Science in Computer Science trains students in programming, computational theory, and the design of networks, hardware, systems, and graphics. The on-campus version at the main campus holds ABET accreditation, and an online option and an off-site option at the the Southern Maryland regional site of the state university system also exist. Students work in a maker lab with 3-D printers and in specialized computer labs. Cybersecurity courses carry recognition from federal security agencies, and clubs such as Women in Computing and the Cybersecurity Club add events and workshops. Graduates look toward roles including application analyst, cybersecurity analyst, data analyst, and database administrator. Programs, concentrations, and admission status can change, so applicants should confirm current details with the department and the Bowie State admissions office before applying. Current contact information and course sequences are published on the university's website.
